Liquitex Acrylic Mediums are made from 100% acrylic polymer emulsion, and form durable films when dry. They have excellent flexibility and resistance to chemicals, water, abrasion and ultraviolet radiation. When added to acrylic paint, they alter the paint handling characteristics, appearance or volume to produce an infinite variety of effects. Gel mediums are ideal for extending a heavy body paint, to create impasto, relief, or sculptural effects.


**00618-3165**  -A high viscosity medium, it dries to a crystal clear gloss finish for sparkling, transparent impastos and textured glazes. Translucent when wet, it is transparent to translucent when dry depending on the thickness of the application. An ideal paint extender, it increases the brilliance and transparency of color without changing paint thickness, resulting in paint similar in color depth to oil paint. Use it as an extender, a ground, or as the binder for powdered pigments to make an inexpensive ''student grade'' high viscosity thick gloss paint.

**00618-1015**  -A high viscosity medium, Matte Gel displays the same qualities as the Gel Medium, except that it dries to a satin, matte finish, and has greater adhesive abilities. Use it as an extender, as a ground, for impasto effects, or as a binder for powered pigments to make an inexpensive ''student grade'' high viscosity thick matte paint.

**02002-1041**  -This archival gel additive boasts a unique polymer formula that thickens acrylic paints and mediums without adding transparency. Used in small amounts, it produces handling characteristics very close to that of oil or encaustic paint. At higher concentrations, it can thicken paint or mediums to a ''cake-like,'' sculptural consistency. It dries to a matte sheen in anywhere from 24 hours to 7 days, depending on the amount used.


**02002-1001**  -Use ultra Matte Gel to extend paint up to double amounts without changing color position. Dries to a matte finish, maintaining color opacity.

They're great for all surfaces, including wood, fabric, ceramics, canvas, or any porous surface. 


Now, Soft Body Acrylics come in ergonomic squeeze bottles with nozzle tips. They were designed with artists to be easier to use and more functional without wasting paint.
